You must be an expert hand-sewer by now. When I made my only quilt (doll quilt), my wrists hurt and my eyes hurt after stitching the binding on that sucker. I can't imagine a larger quilt. (Although if I ever finish that quilt I started months ago, I will have to suck it up.)

Hi, I'm not sure if strangers should make comments but here goes; binding is definitely not my favorite; I think basting is my least favorte. Piecing my favorite. Good job on your 2007 quilts I'm trying to look at all of them but got stopped by a computer malfunction, I think.

That's awesome. There must be some deep psychological reason you like the handsewing of bindings- tidies things up and leaves no rough edges? I dunno, I'm a machine-stitched binding kind of girl, but I admire you! And really, that's quite cool.

I like the binding only because it means that I am almost done with that project and I am ready to move on to the next project. You know how the next project is always more interesting than the current one...

You really are so talented and creative. Love this quilt. I love the blues and browns and whites. I've realized that my entire house (minus the peach-orange and avocado green kitchen - NOT my doing!) is slowly morphing into a blue/brown/white shelter.

Anyway, the point of this comment is to say that I love hand sewing the binding as well. It's very satisfying, and somehow it just really makes the quilt your own. Not that all of the designing, shopping, measuring, cutting, piecing, (ripping, in my case), basting, and quilting don't make it your own. I just think the binding is the best part.
